The only thing that has ever worked for us is getting a cat..our cat killed like 3 adult moles and about 5 babies and we don't have them anymore.in the past we had tried everything and we couldn't get rid of them...good luck
Pepper spray...
Or tracking powder poison dug into a hole under a bucket to prevent pet contamination etc...
Go to a farm and garden NOT home depot. But Tractor Supply and get traps they will teach you how to set them
Get a fiest dog. They will take care of it all!! Also mix bleach and water and soap and pour it into their holes!! (tunnels)
I have always liked what grandpa said to do for moles get yourself a 6 pack and a shotgun and set yourself up on the deck. But seriously traps are the way to go make sure that you let them sit for about a day and then wear gloves when you set them moles have a very good sense of smell also moles are active every couple of hours they tend to wear them selves out and have to take breaks so what you need to do is push down the mole runs and then find out what direction they are moving and then set the traps infront of the runs. You can also call pest control companies but make sure that you are there when they are they like to say that they caught more than they did and they charge per animal some places can be very shady.
Saw a hint in another place-- they said pour used cat litter with the poo in the holes-- they said it took one application.
Talk about natural!!
good luck
Ground moles are looking for food. One of their favorite food sources is grubs. Treat your lawn with an insecticide that gets rid of the grubs and the moles will look for food elsewhere.
Take a hose and spray water in one hole and have someone wait at another hole until they come out and then smack them with a shovel. Needless to say, I am at the end with the hose and my husband is at the other end smacking them.
